Hi.

I am a 19 years old and I have a psychotic disorder since I am 13, but I also am exceptionally gifted.

I have read a lot about dislexy+giftedness, asperger+giftedness, ADHD+giftedness, ... but I haven't found anything about psychotic disorder and giftedness beyond John Nash case.

I just wanted to know if here there is someone who is in the same situation or knows someone with this since day hospitals and community treatment for people with psychosis and schizophrenia are not appropriate (helpful) for people who are twice exceptional (like me).

Also, I am having problems at college which are paradoxical ( or at least that's what the university disability center considers) and It's seems there are not available accommodations for people like me.( "We can't do anything")

Does anyone have similar experiences?


Sorry for my English, It's not my mother tongue.
